I loved the pink and gold. I right away thought of a vellum overlay embossed with gold.
This is the first time in ages that a card actually came together exactly how I pictured it in my head.
I used a printed vellum and embossed the bird, sentiment and flourishes is gold ep. I then overlayed it on Pink Pirouette. This is the last little piece of this beautiful pink ribbon I had(sniff). I will have to try to find somemore.
I just added the little charms with gold cord. This is for friends celebrating their 15th wedding anniversary.
I hope you like it. TFL...

I so love vellum, but never think to use it. If I could create something as gorgeous as this, I'd be all over it. this is just stunning and oh so pretty!

How pretty is this? I'll tell ya, it's GORGEOUS! Love that ribbon. I hope you find more. I've not tried embossing on vellum but you've given me inspiration for that. The bird is so pretty.
